Tennis News: Felix Auger Aliassime has a chance to claim his second career title and return to the top 10 after advancing to the Florence Open final, Florence.
The Canadian tennis player looked powerful as he beat host, Lorenzo Musetti 6-2, 6-3 in the Florence Open semi-final.
As the semis began, the first seed showed powerful play to defeat Musetti. He played flawlessly from the baseline area, including shooting 21 winners with just six unforced errors in the game which ended after 1 hour 27 minutes.
“We started the match really well, at a very high level,” admitted Auger Aliassime. “He played an amazing game and I think I have to play my best game to win. I think that’s what I did in this game, I played a very complete game, and a very solid game I’m really happy and looking forward to the next game.”
When Musetti was down 2-5 in the first set, he called the physio after complaining of abdominal discomfort. But the first seed never let the locals bounce back and give themselves the chance to reach a third season finale. He played the three finals of indoor tournaments on hard ground after Rotterdam and Marseille.
American tennis player JJ Wolf awaits Auger Aliassime for the Florence Open final.
“Finals are always difficult,” Auger Aliassime said. “You have to play your best game, because the two best players of the week go against each other. JJ played really well and served hard. I think if we both serve like we showed this week, it will be a close and fierce game. I will improve my comeback and be ready to fight in the final.”
Wolf entered the first ATP tournament final of his career after claiming a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Sweden’s Mikael Ymer at the Florence Open.
“I’ve never been in a final before. I just have to do what I did and not worry about the results. I absolutely have to endure the tension and wait for the opportunities,” Wolf said.
